Danny is desperately running away. Not from a robber, they’re not much of a threat to him anyways, but from a really intense Batman.
“Oh my ancients,” he muttered as he sprinted away from the dude swinging above him. “Can you please go away?! I already paid you back, dude!” Danny raised his voice at the swooping figure above him. He wished he could go ghost, but that would break his cover so fast as a “meta” or whatever.
“Stop running,” Batman landed in front of him, growl reverberating around them.
“Stop chasing me then! It’s bad manners!” And Danny’s from the midwest, so that’s an actual concern.
“How did you find Two-Face?” Batman loomed before stepping back when Danny’s shoulders curled inwards.
“Oh. Is that what this is all about?” Danny huffed. “It was self defense! And… the pun was too good to not, you know? Yeah, no, I had to. Prime opportunity.”
The cowl might hide it but Danny always knew when people are doing that nose pinch of exasperation. It’s a talent he carefully cultivated through shenanigans and puns.
Batman? Definitely inwardly pinching the bridge of his nose.
“How did you find him? Harvey Dent is a dangerous criminal.”
“In my defense,” Danny started, like a teenager caught guiltily shoving the entire cookie jar into his room instead of leaving some for the rest of the family. “He found me first. Well, no, he found the kids first. He started it!”
Batman somehow raised an eyebrow. How the hell does he do that?? The cowl covered the entire upper half of his face! Danny squinted at him. Is Batman a meta?
“Listen, I didn’t start it, but my sister sure as heck taught me how to end it. It’s not my fault Dent couldn’t handle a beat down. And I told you I was gonna pay you back for that one (1) Big Dent! If you wanted cash, you should have said so!”
“Hrm.”
Maybe it was the fancy gear. Maybe it was the pointy head thing. Batman reminded Danny way too much of Vlad and he got the ick.
“Okay, well, good talk, bye!” Danny ducked and ran, faster than he had before.
Batman grappled up and forward, trying to grab him. Danny, with years of dodge training under his belt and impeccable teenage instincts of gtfo, managed to dodge Batman’s reaching hands with a hollered “OPE!”
“Bye! See you never!” Danny ducked behind an alley and turned invisible as Batman swooped past.
When he was sure the vigilante was gone, he slowly faded into the visible spectrum.
“Jeez. Better warn Amy about this. Maybe I should hide in Crime Alley until this blows past.”
——
Gotham’s underbelly had a new tale to sling around their bars that week and a new demographic to be wary of.
The Terrors, the kiddie gang that ran perpendicular to Crime alley, was preyed on by Harvey Dent.
“What do you think you’re doing to them?!”
“Ahhhhhh!!!” Harvey screamed, flailing as a creature of shadows and claws- god damn those sharp ass claws- descended upon him, scarring it just one side but both sides of his very vulnerable face!
“Back the hell off of my kids, you fashion reject!”
As for Harvey… well, he’s developed an aversion to the smell of peanut butter and small children.
——
Batman, hunting down Danny because he’s worried about the endangered meta kid: you left me a Dent.
Danny, because he sees a vigilante bum rushing him: I have no cash! That’s the only way I can pay you back rn!
——
Batman, trying to lecture Danny about safety because he’s a worried batdad:
Danny: ew a rich stalker trying to be my dad!
@tricksterwitchkat can you tell I’ve been thinking about your pun for days? This is for you, thank you so much for that pun, it made my entire week.
#batman#danny phantom#bruce wayne#dc x dp#harvey dent#two face#two face is not having a good time#Danny and his little sister’s kiddie gang#bamf danny phantom#ope being a thing I’ve heard midwesterners say#I think

everybody go home. this is my magnum opus
#HELP THIS IS KILLING ME#the original version of this had hua cheng in a ‘i have a CRAZY wife she hates STUPID PEOPLE and LOVES DOGS and im NOT AFRAID TO USE HER’#but if hua cheng was at midwestern gas station number 472 in the novelty slogan tshirt aisle#she for sure would get some sort of ‘your wife (woman symbol) vs MY WIFE (wonder woman silhouette)’#or ‘trophy 🏆🏆 WIFE’#or possibly a ‘return to wife if lost’#or ‘i have a SMOKIN HOT wife’#or ‘im the BOSS til my WIFE gets home’#or ‘5 things you should know about my WIFE: 1. she is my queen 2. she is a bit crazy 3. she can whoop your ass#4. she says whatever she is thinking 5. mess with her and theyll never find your body’#or ‘i go to work so my wife can COLLECT SCRAPS’#or even at worst. ‘ my wife is the PRINCESS the mouse LOST’#xie lian would be initially embarassed. but you know her ass would be wearing a ‘proud PROPERTY of an AWESOME WIFE’ shirts @ heaven meetings#or ‘i’m not scared of ANYTHING - my WIFE is a CALAMITY’#which was sold as a metaphor for your wife being mean and powerful. but she wears it straight.#or even ‘im not GAY but my WIFE is’ lmfao#anyway.#tgcf#tian guan ci fu#hualian#hua cheng#xie lian#hualesbians#modern au#tgcf meme#my art#art#tgcf shitpost#lmao#mxtx

the finnish food tasting segment finally dropped and there is quite literally nothing funnier than maffhew who desires the approval and opinion of his great beloved captain in what he considers him an expert in aka finland so honestly does his opinion really matter in the grand scheme of things if sasha doesnt like said food?
match made in terrible eating manner heaven, amen
#matthew tkachuk#aleksander barkov#florida panthers#2425#“what. am i having. here. some fish 🤖” you can tell he was the funny kid who did quirky voices in class huh#sashas proper “herRING” because eng is his third language meet maffhews drawly midwestern“HERRIN'”#“DUDE I ACTUALLY LIKE THAT BETTER!!! no joke 😯” “...im not a fan...” (backpedals in people pleasing) “...youre not a fan...?”#“i dont like that one...still love your country though!” like we had any inkling youd suddenly hate your husbands country because of mustard#“barky hates this one so i dont know maybe my judgements wrong” girl who will dog on her boyfriend for being picky#but also wait im having second thoughts 🥺🥺#god disgusting give us more of these interactions#sasha so terribly in love with maffhew and viceversa...#every new video that releases about the 1619 date the more of a date it becomes truly

the real villain of this movie is new york city, because in an alternate universe Patrick Bateman is a radio DJ for some alt station in des moines or detroit, has strong opinions about every album ever released and turns into an insult comic the moment you question those opinions. he's very happy, wouldn't even know what a face peel is.
#rip midwestern dj patrick bateman. you deserved being horrible and annoying in obscurity.#to be clear I am not saying this would stop him murdering people. he might still murder people.#(midwest america in 2000 still has capitalism after all.)#just that he'd be happier not knowing which restaurants in manhattan are swanky and instead spending his time#carefully curating his cd collection and arguing with people who think that elvis costello is the best new wave artist around.

more clone^2 memes because i think they're funny
#dpxdc#dp x dc#dp x dc crossover#dpxdc crossover#dpdc#clone^2#danny fenton is not the ghost king#so canon to clone^2 and clone damian the portal that ends up transporting damian to amity park is left pr ambiguous#so really how he got there could be one of many things whether it be through divine intervention or clockwork's doing or hell#it could've also been quite literally the 1 in 1 millionth chance that a natural portal opened up beneath him and sent him to amity#and was a happy accident#but the idea that the laz pits or another adjacent such entity heard damian wanting an older brother (he meant og damian but oops never-#specified) and then sends him to the one person who could fulfill that wish and make him happy at the same time.#was really funny to me within the context of the lilo and stitch meme. the meme can also be seen the other way around with danny as lilo#and damian as stitch. but danny being stitch was infinitely funnier and ~technically~ more accurate imo#danny technically IS a nice angel but also. he's a developing menace to society (just ask wes) and he's going to make damian one too#danny being from the midwest means he has a midwestern accent and thats not something the bats know how to handle when they finally meet hi#hey look at that! my meme making skills are steadily improving. im no longer making the same joke six different times in different formats#those first two images i made a few days ago the rest i made in the last thirty minutes in a spur of clone^2 induced inspiration#and procrastination of writing the cfau rewrite of the first post. we are 10k words deep folks and just barely got past the 1st gala reunio#dunking on the giw is a god-given right and danny WILL pass it down to damian

my dark vanessa | supernatural | mysterious skin
#do u see my vision.#supernatural#spn#deanjohn#my dark vanessa#mysterious skin#dean winchester#john winchester#my roommates are watching spn so i keep seeing eps and being like alright wots all this then 🤨#i just think the show had the potential to be a really good midwestern gothic horror / family horror piece. like the pieces were all there!#hunting should be a metaphor for the cycle of abuse#john parentified dean when he lost his wife. in a sense he replaced his wife with dean#and dean is devoted to his father on a bizarre and concerning level#john exposed his children to monsters at a young age and now they can't bring themselves to quit even tho it hurts them#hunting kept dean and sam isolated from everyone else. they simultaneously resent him for it AND feel special#dean has no idea how to have a normal relationship with anyone because the only model he has is his own relationship with his father#do u see?? do u get the vision???

Did you see the clip of Joe yesterday?
Is it a clip now? Oh lord....was it funny at least?
It was the first time he ever used the F word in a conference.
He cursed? Y'all lying...I be trying to get him to curse, he don't curse when I'm talking to him...
#again love love loveeee this style of press conference where they get joe to talk about ja'marr a lot the first day#then report everything he said back to ja'marr the next day#truly they do have to communicate with each other in the MOST indirect convoluted ways#exhausting! just make them do these together!!! can you imagine them arguing about whether ja'marr's ever asked for the ball like that??#but still. this version of reality is also Very Good.#is it a clip now?? oh lord... just so wife embarrassed about husband coded if i'm being honest!#like 'oh what did he say now!! i hope it was at least funny!'#and then not believing that joe cursed (just like he didn't believe joe winked earlier in the year)#constantly trying to figure this man out <3#you know he's going to be on joe even more to curse now#the thing is i feel like joe probably doesn't curse much in casual conversion. midwestern polite boy and all that#but he's a grown-ass man so i'm sure he DOES curse occasionally#but maybe knowing how much ja'marr wants him to...he purposefully does it less around him to mess with him#that's a dynamic i fully believe for them#ja'marr chase#joe burrow#joe'marr

So just had absolutely brilliant idea
Lancer was in Gotham for an extended period of time for reasons but as he was here he decided to make the most of it he went and saw the local tourist attractions he visited the famous land marks of Gotham he fist fought a guy on the street over a disagreement on literature theories, Kissed the guy he fought with and scored a library date with him oh! And he even got to be in a rouge attack how exciting
Basically lancer is on Gotham for a bit and ends up fighting jason over literature but I'm not nearly smart enough to know what they would actually fight/discuss about but anyway they fight have one of those it gets so heated you can't tell if they're angery or horny at each other and kiss then jason asks lancer out on a date
#dpxdc#dp x dc#dc x dp#dcxdp#dp x dc prompt#dp x dc crossover#look i love anger management as much as the next guy#however i just want lancer to find love by fighting jason in the street#and jason severely ecto contaminated/poisoned that he is finally gets the joy of another ecto being fighting him#also just the hilarity of jason 'crime lord/ vigilante in my spare time' todd actually gets beat by a Midwestern school teacher

i just know adam romanticized a freezing, whiteout minnesota winter while in the cage because he was just so homesick. he was slowly losing his memories of snow days out of school and building tunnels through the snow as a kid for hours on end. only coming back inside, head to toe drenched, when his mom would call for him that dinner and a hot chocolate was ready. adam would relay these memories to michael in the cage to keep them from being forgotten for good. and then adam and michael are all of a sudden free and michael, who could tell just how much these memories of home meant to adam, takes adam up to minnesota in the middle of january for the true, authentic experience.
and adam is grateful for all of five minutes before he's like, "yeah... so back to cairo next or? maybe cancún?"
#i know adam would love being back home#but still#i'm a midwesterner who's currently in such blizzard let me project#i'm cold#adam milligan#adam spn#michael spn#midam#spn#supernatural

"Funny enough I—like, if street hockey, ministicks, I always wanted to be a goalie too! Like, for some reason I always wanted to go in net. You know, probably because of [my Dad] and then, um, you know, once you get dinged a couple times and the shots get too hard you realise—then it's not so much fun after all so... Yeah, it was great he'd always—" "You probably wanted to be goalie 'cuz you're fucking crazy, man! Those guys are bananas! I actually went as a goalie in morning skate one time when I was suspended in the coast, and it was the scariest thing ever, bro. It's nothing like blocking a shot because you're literally just standing there, and these guys are shooting right at you. It's unbelievable!" "Yeah! You gotta get in the way of the stuff to save it! That's crazy! I know, and like obviously gear is like great and they don't really feel—but there is, like, that psychological thing going on where, like, you know, you wanna move out of the way 'cuz it's gonna hurt! I get—I mean, it must not hurt that much, like, 'cuz Bob's crazy, man! Bob loves taking—Well, I wouldn't say loves taking it off the head, but he doesn't hate it, like he—" "Feels good?" "You know, every once in a while—they hit him in the head and you go up and say sorry he's like, 'No, no! It's all good! I love it, I love it!!' and like, kind-of shoos you away so."

#ryan lomberg#sergei bobrovsky#matthew tkachuk#florida panthers#why can i perfectly imagine i love it i love it!! in bobbys voice#i love our resident maniac#goalies are a different breed#but especially bobby#theres still something so funny about asking the nicest guy on the team#to aim dingers off ya head absolutely knowing itd put them at odds with themselves#psychological warfare#i dont want to hurt him but also i love being a good teammate and helping my friends :(#absolutely diabolical for bobby to take advantage of matthews midwesternisms like that#every cat tries to be nice to their pretty princess but shes an actual lunatic#“we try to go up to say sorry but hes all like its all good i love it!” and other lore to add to the great big book of panthers#HE SHOOS THEM AWAY FROM THE CREASE AFTER THEY ALMOST CAUSE HIM A CONCUSSION OKAY????#LIKE OKAY OFF YOU GO IM FINE NOW GO BACK TO HITTING ME#bobbys a different breed truly#you know when they praise his work ethic i dont think they had this mind#i love lombo bringing this up during the goalies are fuckin crazy eh boys? segment#its so amusing to see how appalled he sounds when he says “they hit him in the head...” quote#like he just had to bring that up because hes still soooo about how egregious it is LIKE HE JUST SHOOS US AWAY???#phenomenal work here lads truly

i just wish we had more uncle moony and harry content :(
I’ll bet Harry did too
#this is the most midwestern passive aggressive way to ask for drawings#but also I don’t really like art being called content fyi#I don’t create content#it’s not there to just be consumed#go make some yourself!#it’s fun!
